Capture & Release

Chapter 1 - Backstory

Stiles honestly didn't know whether to kiss or kill Jackson right now when faced with the glowering hotness of the adonis that was Derek Hale, Alpha and second in command at Hale's Angels.   

When his Alpha and long time best friend had hinted of a potential job opportunity going at Hale's Angels, the revolutionary organisation which not only stood up for Omega rights, but actively rescued and provided Omega's with opportunities for a better future outside of the existing oppressive system, well Stiles had all but bit his arm off for more details. He had then succeeded in getting himself an interview with Laura Hale herself.  

Jackson had been working there as part of their legal team for the past couple of years, working closely with the Hale's in finding loopholes in the law that enabled them to get away with the, somewhat sketchy, vigilante type of work they did, in rescuing and protecting Omega's wherever they could. Saving many from a lifetime of (amongst other things), slavery, degradation, sexual submission and abuse.   

The company's primary objective was as a private security firm, but it was also a not so well kept secret that their true mission was fighting for justice and equality for all Omega's. Laura was now CEO of the company, which had been set back a few years ago on their mission when the Hale parent's, Talia and David, had been brutally murdered. Their murderers had unfortunately never been caught, but it was clear to all that their deaths had been a strategic ploy to stop their company for progressing further with their success of gaining support for their proposed 'Equal Rights For All Bill'.

Job's for Omega's were rare, generally only existing in the form of cleaners, cooks, childminders etc, all vital jobs, but even in these roles Omega's rarely saw the fruits of their labour, the proceeds automatically going to their appointed Alpha.   

Stiles had been lucky for an Omega; when he left school, his Beta father, who was Sheriff of Beacon Hills, employed Stiles as a receptionist, with the silent understanding that Stiles would subtly be able to review case files and help him with some of the investigative research work (a role that Omega's were prohibited from). This had been more than any Omega could generally dream of, so Stiles had leapt at the opportunity, much to the disgust of some of the disgruntled Deputies who suspected the true nature of his job and treated him like something found on the bottom of their shoe.

Stiles hadn't minded, such was the lot of an Omega unfortunately, after all, he knew he had it better than most so why complain.  

But a year ago Stiles had been attacked and abducted, after being conveniently sent on a coffee run by a very insistent Deputy Reynolds, who had claimed that he must have his very specific coffee order within the next 15 minutes. If Stiles had been a Beta he could have refused to go, this was hardly the best use of tax payers money, he had duties to do, he wasn't some Alpha's lackey. Unfortunately though Stiles couldn't refuse, especially when compelled by an Alpha. So Stiles had begrudgingly gone, filled with animosity as well as a fierce determination to spit a loogey into Reynolds' drink as a pitiful revenge.   

Unfortunately he never got that opportunity, it had obviously been a set up. Stiles had realised that early on, the consequences of which resulted in the worst five months of Stiles' life. Beaten, starved and downtrodden, he found himself as property for the first time in his life; a commodity to be abused, trained and groomed, with the intent of being sold as part of an illegal Omega trafficking ring.  

Stiles tried to memorise details in the early days of his capture, determined that when he was rescued he would find a way to help all the others. Details were limited though, they were clever, he was even kept blindfolded and gagged whenever the founder was around so as to be unable to identify or talk to him. Stiles had fought for as long as he could, he had been degraded and forced to submission by a team of Alpha Enforcers, who took joy in breaking Omega's, even more so when they had spunk like Stiles. Stiles lasted longer than many of the others, but towards the end of month four Stiles had become but a shell of his former self.
